Generally speaking, the major of animal medicine is to train "veterinarians", which is a comprehensive subject based on biology to study the occurrence and development of animal diseases, and to diagnose and prevent diseases on this basis to ensure animal health. Its basic task is to effectively prevent and control diseases of livestock and poultry, companion animals, medical experimental animals and other ornamental animals. Animal medicine is similar to other medical majors. First, we should learn basic biology and medical theory, and then strengthen students' understanding of the theory through a large number of anatomical experiments. There is a clinical internship period of about one year to ensure that students can finally master various methods to treat animal specialties.
